North Lamar Service Station

Don’t ever do business here unless you want to call the cops.
I used to go there because the mechanics are great BUT the new owners are BIG pieces of s^*#!!
I came in to get a basic registration inspection 5÷4÷16 and after completion I paid the $ 18.50 and was given a yellow receipt. I did not realize they were supposed to give me a white vehicle inspection report which they failed to do.
I went to the Tax assessors the next morning to get my stickers and they notified me of the missing paperwork.
Came back to North Lamar Service station and they would not provide me the report unless I paid them $ 30 for it. Saying I had lost it. I NEVER got it. EVER and they’re trying to strong arm me into paying for something I’ve already paid for.
I HAD TO CALL THE COPS
Plead my case and show him my paid receipts to get the owner (Korean) to «mysteriously find my copy he never gave me»
Luckily the technicians who worked on my car one Latino and one white were willing to help me and provide me the paperwork the owner failed to give me.
Urge you to never go there and if you do make sure you get ALL your paperwork.

Tom is a great mechanic and is very thorough when inspecting my vehicles. That being said, he treats my 1963 restored Ford with the respect she deserves. This station is so reminiscent of how full service gas stations used to be– a dying breed-​John

Tom was very professional and quick to fix my brother’s Hyundai Veloster tire. We first went to Faris Tires right off of N. Lamar blvd., but he was closed on Memorial day.
Tom was the only mechanic/​tech was on duty. My brother had a flat tire and we were satisfied to find a station that could assist us.
Tom worked vigorously to ensure the flat was patched and fixed before we left. He put the single tire on a special machine. It dismounted the tire without damaging the wheel. He patched the tire from the inside out.
It cost us $ 16 for Tom to fix the busted tire. We went ahead and tipped him aswell. The service station is a gas station, but I’m unfamiliar with Shamrock fuel performance.
If your ever in the area and need a tire repaired come here. Tom or any of the others techs will do an outstanding job.

Malfunctioning gas pump overflows my tank…
Earlier today I stopped at the station to fill up. I put the pump in, pulled the handle and latched it. It was pretty cold out so I went back into the car and waited. Next thing I know another customer ran up to my car and stopped the pump because it was overflowing. Quite a bit overflowed and it was all over the side of my car and running under it. I talked to the owner and he told me it’s my problem. I said that they are supposed to have an automatic shutoff right? Well, you can see that it didn’t stop. My concern is that he needs to have the pump checked or something because it was obviously malfunctioning. Without looking at it or anything he said that there was nothing wrong with it. Everyone please try to stay away from this gas station.

Awesome place to get your state inspection. Honest people. They get busy but are very efficient. Been going there for our vehicles for the last 2 years. Have never had any kind of issue.

I have used them over 15 years for an my car state inspection. It has changed owners but mechanic is the same. They are straight forward if something is wrong. I don’t feel like they are just looking to add on stuff to make a buck like other places I’ve used in the past. They do get busy doing inspections so alot time if you go during a busy time. Ask, they will give you a time estimate and be pretty accurate. They do other stuff but I only get inspected there. The current owners have changed over to Shamrock gas which I don’t use and they are a litttle out of my way.
